JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioner : Mr. Vishal Kr. Trivedi, Advocate Mr. Raj Shekhar Jha, Advocate For the State : Mr. Someshwar Roy, Addl.P.P ------ Order No.02 Dated-03-04-2025 Heard the parties. Apprehending her arrest in connection with Sidhgora P.S. Case No.189 of 2024 corresponding to G.R. No.1146 of 2024 instituted for the offences punishable under Sections 108/61(2)/3(5) of the B.N.S., 2023, the petitioner has moved this Court for grant of privileges of anticipatory bail. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that the petitioner in criminal conspiracy with the co-accused persons and in furtherance of common intention with them, abetted the suicide of Preety Devi who is the daughter-in-law of the petitioner. It is next submitted that the allegation against the petitioner is false. It is then submitted that the undisputed fact remains that the petitioner resides at Bhojpur while the deceased and her husband used to live in Jamshedpur. It is then submitted that there is no allegation of any overt act on the part of the petitioner which could have led the deceased to commit suicide. Drawing attention of this court towards para-29 of the instant bail application, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has no criminal antecedent. It is further submitted that the petitioner undertakes that he will not annoy or disturb the informant in any manner during the pendency of the case. It is lastly submitted that petitioner undertakes to cooperate with the investigation of the case and to furnish sufficient security including cash security. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioner be given the privileges of anticipatory bail. Learned Addl.P.P. appearing for the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner. Considering the submissions of learned counsels and the facts and circumstances stated above, I am inclined to grant privileges of anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, the petitioner is directed to surrender in the Court below within six weeks from the date of the order and in the event of his arrest or surrendering, he will be enlarged on bail on depositing Rs.10,000/- as cash security and on furnishing bail bond of Rs.25,000/- (Twenty five thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Judicial Magistrate-1st Class, Jamshedpur in connection with Sidhgora P.S. Case No.189 of 2024 corresponding to G.R. No.1146 of 2024 with the condition that he will co-operate with the investigation of the case and appear before the investigating officer as and when noticed by him and furnish his mobile number and photocopy of the Aadhar Card with an undertaking that he will not change his mobile number during the pendency of the case and he will not annoy or disturb the informant in any manner during the pendency of the case and further conditions as laid down under Section 482 (2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
